An intense confrontation unfolds between a young man and his former mentor, a once-inspiring philosopher now living in despair. After years abroad, the disciple returns only to find his master has abandoned his family and ideals, leading to a night of painful revelations and critiques of their shared beliefs. Written during a period of creative struggle, this novel explores the dualities of human nature, aiming to reconcile despair with the pursuit of beauty and truth. Translated by Tess Lewis, it showcases Jaccottet's literary prowess.
